The Boston Journal of Tuesday
publishes an interview with Col.
Hooker, from which it seems the Col.
takes a roseate view of the political
situation and thinks the next presi-
dent will be republican. He also
asserts that he will not be candidate
for Congress next year, for personal
reasons.

The constitunality of prohibitory
Legislation is now before the United
States Supreme Court and enough
has TRANSFERRED to show that the court
is evenly divided, and it looks as if
the whole matter will lie with the
Judge to be appointed by President
Cleveland in room of the late Judge
Wood. President Cleveland is
known to be opposed to prohibition,
so the matter really begins to look
scarry for the phohibitionists. Well,
they elected Cleveland, and as you
make your bed so must you lie.

A MAMMOTH BUsTLE.

1t was an interesting yet Illuminating
exposure of a wouid-be smuggler which
occurred in the New York custom
house recently. Mrs. Laura Morgan,
one of the corps of inspectors, thought
that Miss Adelaide Martien. a pas
senger from Liverpool, on the steamer
Nevada, was unnaturally plump and
rotund, and therefore insisted on
searching her person for dutiable goods
The young lady, who belongs to a rich
and aristocratic family, insisted that
she had nothing subject to duty on her
person or in her trunks, but rather than
submit to the indignity of being
searched she proposed to pay the in.
spector $40. Mrs. Morgan was in
exorsble, however, and insisted upon
examining Miss MARTENS hustle, which
was. in the language of reporter, "as
big as q barrel" There being no
alternative, Miss Martien sub
mitted, and the official explora-
ton OF the hustle was entered
upon. The contents were found to con-
sist of FIVE pieces of black lace and lace
trimming, five lace collars, two packages
of hooks and eyes, one watch, five
brooches. two pairs of bracelets in
handsome cases. Miss MARTENS trunks
came next. In them were found twenty
four pieces Worsted binding, three pieces
cotton braid, thirty pieces silk braid,
twelve pieces silk ribbon, two pieces
black lace, three pieces lace trimming.
1761z yards silk, eight and half yards
velvet, fifty and half yards mixed silk
and cotton goods, 200 pairs of dress
shields. two pairs of mems socks and
one table spread. Crushed in spirit and
shrunken in form the fair smuggler de-
parted, leaving her plumber to be dis
posed of by the government.

AN ACCIDENT AT ALMY.
Henry Cummock, Once of this
City, Badly Injured.

Henry Cummock, Jr., once of the
Eighteenth Ward of this city, but now
a resident of Almy, Wyo., met with an
accident at the latter place on the 23d
inst, which, if it does not terminate
fatally, will. it is generally feared, rem
der the unfortunate young man a
cripple for life. Mr.. Cummock and
partner were working in No. 5, mine be-
longing to the Central Pacific Com
pany, doing some contract work.
Their operations were being conducted
in room in the mine twenty-four feet
in height. He had occasion to go up
to the top to knock down some loose
coal after blast had been fired, using
Ascending the ladder, he mac the re-
mark if it was to fall Ibis name would
be Denis" He had no sooner made
the remark than the ladder fell, caused
by the loose coal at the top of the lad
der giving way. Mr.. Cummock fell
with terrific force upon his head,
the force of the fall bending his
neck in under his breast, and causing
him, therefore, to fall at once upon his
head, neck and shoulders. A large
dent was thus made between the
shoulder blades; his head was fearfully
hurt, and the shock rendered him
paralyzed from his breast down to his
feet. He is utterly oblivious to all
feeling-pinching or pricking him with
any instrument being unfelt; but he
still retains consciousness. Three sur
geons were in attendance, but have de-
clded that they can CO nothing for him,
they consider the case as develops, d
unknown to medical science. His in
testines are supposed to have been all
displaced. He himself, says he is in
pad fix, but that he'd like to cheat
the surgeons. Great sympathy is felt
for him amongst the hardy sons of toll,
and at a meeting held by them Sunday
evening it was resolved that four men
take turns every evening in attending
him, as it takes that many to handle
him, he being all dead weight What.
makes the case more sad is the fact
that his father, Henry Cummock, Sen.
was killed there in the terrible explosion
of January, 1886. Mr.. Cummock has
wife and two small children. and Fri
day evening when all thought he was
about to die, he called his brother over
to his bedside and in a very affecting
manner requested and exacted a
promise from him to "look after his
poor Susie and the children after he was
gone" There is not very much chance
of his recovery, but it is the universal
wish that he be spared to his loving and
atfectionate wife, family and friends.

NOT CENTRAL PACIFIC PROJECT

Since the organization of the Salt
Lake & Los Angeles Railway Company
there has been more or less talk in this
city to the effect that the company has
been formed in the interest of the
Central Pacific whose money is behind
the project. 1t is limited by the know
ais that the G. P, or, what is the same
thing, the Southern Pacific, will build,
own and control the line, and operate
it in their own interest, and not for the
benefit of Salt Lake and Utah. 1t is
hardly worth while to notice these
hints and insinuations, and they would
not be noticed If it were not for the
fact that some intelligent men have
heard and are repeating them. A
moments thought should convince
any person at sll familiar with the
situation that the great railway corpo-
ration of California could not even de-
sire the construction of the proposed
road; and much less could it
put money into it. That company
already owns and operates two lines
of railway to the east, one of these lines
reaching the Gulf of Mexico and ex-
tending to the Atlantic seaboard, and
the other having the same direct con-
nection with eastern roads that the
Salt Lake & Los Angeles will enjoy. 1t
no M
Southern Pacific to build this road to
parallel its own lines, and draw business
from them. It would be equally con-
sistent to say the Union Pacific or Den
yer & Rio Grande was constructing the
Midland. which is so rapidly coming
hither. Less than any other company
does the Central Pacific desire the
building of the s. l.. & L. A., for the
latter will necessarily hurt the former
more than any other line. Practically
all the through business of the proposed
road will be business which would
otherwise go to the California company.
The Salt Lake & Los Angeles is just
what it has been represented to
be, an independent company;
the road is to be built with Cali
fornia and Eastern capital, with such
assistance as our own people care to
extend. 1t is hoped and expected that
both Salt Lake and Los Angeles will
aid as much as they conveniently can,
and thus obtain as large an interest as
they may in the enterprise, which is to
do so much for both cities: and nobody
need experience the slightest degree of
fear that there is any cunning, deep
laid scheme in the enterprise, which
has for its object the giving IF aid and
comfort and money to any of the
giant monopolies which the people pro-
Tess so much to dread. The men who
have been foremost in the project, and
the names of the incorporators should
be sufficient guarantee to every body
that the Salt Lake & Los Angeles is
purely and solely what it processes.
